The 1991 sequel Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze will re-enter theaters nationwide for a one-week engagement from March 13 to 19. This 35th anniversary celebration features a new 4K restoration, marking its first theatrical presentation in that format. The event includes exclusive bonus content with TMNT co-creator Kevin Eastman.
Fathom Entertainment, Saga Arts, and Warner Bros. Pictures are behind the re-release of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze, bringing the fan-favorite film back to cinemas for its 35th anniversary. Originally released in 1991 as a sequel, the movie follows the crime-fighting turtle siblings in their adventures. This limited run, scheduled from Friday, March 13 through Thursday, March 19, will offer showtimes varying by location across the country.
The re-release comes in a newly restored 4K format, enhancing picture quality for longtime fans and new audiences alike. Accompanying the feature is a never-before-seen featurette titled “The Ninja Turtles: Revolutions,” which screens before the film. In it, TMNT co-creator Kevin Eastman provides a personal glimpse into his creative process, reflecting on the franchise's evolution, mythology, and enduring legacy from his drawing desk.
This anniversary event builds on the success of last year’s 35th anniversary theatrical return of the original Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film. What was planned as a two-day engagement expanded to four weeks, achieving a spot in the domestic box office Top 10 and grossing nearly $3.7 million. The current wave of Turtlemania aims to reintroduce the heroes in a half shell to families and a new generation on the big screen.
